RE: So where's THE DUKE

If you dislike the blogs so much why bother to read or comment on them?

You are free to leave whenever you wish.

RE: So where's THE DUKE

What plot? You are showing signs of a mental dysfunctionality if you really think there was a plot to get rid of the foul-mouthed South African.

He deserved to go, it is that simple.

RE: So where's THE DUKE

I would tend to agree about that but what happens if one person is constantly offensive, bullying and foul-mouthed? In that case you'd have to get rid of the person and that's what happened here.

False accusations...

Already half-way into the kitchen renovation that was started I think around last Thanksgiving.

The hard part was done.
None of these units had tile into the back wall. They cheat and only go to the toe kick.
We pulled out the old cabinets and my partner filled the void with cement so the new cabinets (and stove) sit on a level floor. New base cabinets, granite countertop, sink and disposal.
We only disagree where she wants to save money and keep the old upper cabinets by painting the existing doors.
Different door style and 30" high. I'll surprise her with 42" high matching uppers, color and door style. Also, the layout will be tweaked for better storage.

I want to finish the project so I can show the kitchen and get a few remodeling jobs from it.

Soon...


As far as CS not being a healthy place... it's been like that for a long time.
Fact and not a complaint. I'll post what interests me and stay away from the toxic bloggers.

False accusations...

I shouldn't have to justify my actions but you are claiming dates like it's important.

When did I say 3 years... recently? Was it a typo?
We just discussed dates and the condo was bought in December 2018.
You do the math...
Renovation started right away and stopped when I ran out of funds, which was early 2019. We commuted day, night and weekends doing much of the work ourselves.
We switched gears to fix up the Miami house and it was sold in the first quarter of 2019 so we had no option but to move in. My Miami neighbor was kind enough to allow me to store a dozen plastic bins of 'stuff' until we made room in the patio.

Contrary to your suspicion, we are together lots of hours, sleep in the same bed, share the same space doing different hobbies. Nearly all my meals are prepared by her, with the exception of pizza, I'm eating healthy and my latest blood work shows that.
She wishes I would retire, loves that I'm getting back to music and supports my model aircraft hobby. We travel together, eat together, have life together. Nearly every decision is made together.

I sent ONE compliment... ONE to a fellow blogger who was in need of updating her photos and bleu struck an uncalled for first blow. Actually not the first, but the latest of many.

I enjoy writing. It keeps my mind focused. The fact that I can document things from trivial to significant in blogs is my thing. Listening to someones perspective different than mine.
Music for example... I haven't heard 80% maybe 90% of the videos posted on CS.

I talk to her about all the goings-on here including the personalities.
We talk politics, but her understanding of American government is limited. She gets her news in Chinese and often hears things before I do.

One day, I'll decide to wean off of CS. One day.
Life is good. So far, this year, I sold more than I did all of last year and a friend asked if I'm available to take on some projects for his company. Possible.
My cousin really wants to get the trio going. It won't be financially rewarding, at least not in the beginning. Rehearsals and learning songs does take some time.

False accusations...

Actually, I need to respond because you're making a false accusation.

Who said $38,000 ?
When I started shopping for a house 6 years ago in the Boca, Delray, Boynton areas, I couldn't afford a house in this area. The cheapest I found was around $375,000.
Townhouses were in the neighborhood of $250,000.

My only choice was to shop retirement condo communities and there are several here in-between some really pricey neighborhoods. At the time, the average condo was $65,000.
I waited a year and was lucky to get one the week it was listed at $72,000.

The vice-president of my association moved here 20 years ago and told me he paid over $116,000 then. I don't have all the facts, but there was a crash and prices dropped dramatically. He was one of the ones who were forced to stay or lose out financially. Some of the neighbors remember values under $20,000.
My neighbor who was in his late 80's told me his brother owned my unit and only came for holidays. I believe after the crash, many people bought several units and rented them out. I did a kitchen renovation for one guy who owned 4 of them.

All of Florida has been impacted by COVID. I've been checking condo prices recently and units in this development are in excess of $170,000. as is. The ones who renovated are asking much more.
My place is more than double... If I sell, where am I going to go?

This place has survived many hurricanes and I've got the original windows... most of the residents do. We are grandfathered in. So far, they haven't forced us to upgrade. The plastic strips holding the glass has dried and cracked. Some residents have shutters or impact windows, often that are seasonal and have no means to board up. I'm not planning to spend $20,000 for window upgrades.
The association had a great idea to replace a plastic strips on the first floor only... BS, I'm on the 2nd floor. It is what it is.

A friend of mine less than 2 miles away lives in a Misner community and in 6 years the value of his place has tripled. We talked about it at 1.75 million now. His HOA is in the $400/month range. Mine is now $694/month.

If I really retire, it would consider a few hours north in a small house without an association.

Nothing personal...

False accusations...

Thanks for your comment.
This blog is about someone stalking me and making false comments in suspicion that I reported another member and had his profile closed.




As far as the amount of political blogs... a year ago there were lots of members contributing from both sides with more activity/comments for each. I've decreased my blog output. With the exception of sdarlagg posting a few political blogs each day, there has been a drop in overall blog activity political or not.

Amazing to note, my stalker blogged that 2 days went by where no one blogged.
Sounds like a no-win situation. Complain if you don't blog, complain if you do.
Actually, thanks for commenting on my chronic complainers blog!

Hints from you, they weren't... it was getting personal you said you would no longer comment on any of my blogs. There may have been personal issues that made you get frustrated with me. Sorry... hopefully, it's over now.
I don't recall arguing with other members on my blogs. They are entitled to voice their opinions. Many bear no true facts. Look around... from arguments are the ones who go to jail or get ejected. I don't consider stating facts or posting videos of newscasts, interviews or public statements made by political figures to be stirring the pot.

Again, thanks for your comment.


Membership on dating sites always has an ebb and flow. Overall activity is down right now with less new members. Someone said less activity was because CS introduced a method of upgrade. It's still a free site and while the upgrade message is on the opening page, I believe it doesn't detract from new membership.

I noticed new membership and activity on another has dropped to an all-time low. A year ago, there were several hundred online, especially nights and weekends, now it's less than 50.
Seasonal? It could be.

False accusations...

Oxy, I would like to think the rules here are even across the board with no favoritism for members who are liked more than others.

Unless someone is here naive enough to use their real name, it's a handle, like CBers.
Hey Big Daddy... you really screwed the goose this time!

Defamation of character to a 'handle' profile name would carry zero weight.


"The whole world can see these forums, it’s not private."

True in the past. They made site changes this year and people who aren't logged in have limited viewing ability.

False accusations...

Who me? (say that fast and it sounds like the local sushi chef)
The person wasn't mentioned and maybe logic will come to play and he will find another hobby.

RE: So where's THE DUKE

Butcher also appears to be missing like Luke he to was honest and sensible, both good blokes

I like the idea of Trump 47 / Agenda 47 listed by a Woke influencer herein

Anyways, hopefully Agenda 47 will provide means to end the destruction of American cities like N.Y. City. Maybe the biden family and Ukraine should pay for the damages done?

What does the democrat party expect to happen when there few jobs for all the millions illegal immigrants they are bringing here.

RE: What do U.S. citizens living in Colorado think about possibly not having a choice to vote for Trump.

Election interference.

RE: This guy wants a second term as Potus.

The other one is just as bad or worse for making gaffs as they are both too old for this job.

Who is going to be the modern day George Washington and destroy the Marxist movement in the USA.

Captain America can do it! MAGA Agenda not Marxist or Treason Agenda

Who is going to be the modern day George Washington and destroy the Marxist movement in the USA.

America First .... No more middle fingers for American Citizens...

Our entire Federal Budget is borrowed !

Protect our border and our citizens health and safety Again.

Who is going to be the modern day George Washington and destroy the Marxist movement in the USA.

Is there any difficult in choosing who can Make America Great Again.

RE: Sneaker Con...

Yet another failed business venture for Trump, wonder how many people won't get pad in relation to the sneakers?

RE: Who is next?

I think she's doing a good job, raising an important issue.

RE: Who is next?

Absolute garbage. Your ability to fool yourself is extraordinary.

Is Norway really too White?

FF you are saying the same thing as Ohioan Ervin Kohn in the script at the bottom of the original blog post.




Norway is TOO WHITE! According to the President of the Jewish Community in Oslo From. Ervin Kobn - President of The Jewish Community in Osio and the Deputy Director at the Norwegian Center Against Racism "The Norwegian people have very little experience dealing with minorities' So we have BIG "job to do" in bringing minorities to them, according to Ervin Kohn (Twitter). Kohn the President of The Jewish Community in Oslo and the Deputy Director at the Norwegian Center Against Racism. The question is, since when did Norwegians decide they needed an organization to solve the "problem" of racism in their country? After all, isn't Norway a country? Not for lona. if Kohn has his wav!
